The only thing I have to say about the library is that usually the work is started with a fast sketch, second step usually are to assign some resistor values, third state if there are nothing more is to assign footprints and last step but usually not for all components are to assign manufacturer part number.

Resistors usually go through all steps while for ASICs it is quite common only to select footprint before manufacturer part number is assigned. In PADS usually all parameters are needed then the symbol is added but usually only some of the parameters are known at this point.
